The Idaho Stateman article today, quoting an article in the Spokesman
Review by Betsy Z. Russell: " Otter signs bill allowing concealed weapons
without permits. The gun bill allows Idahoans 21 and older to carry
concealed guns inside cities without a permit.
Otter proclaimed himself "a gun owner, a hunter and a lifetime member of
the National Rifle Association," but said he had concerns about the
bill's lack of provision for education and training. "Such a safeguard
would seem to be part of the Second Amendment's "well regulated
standard." he said. He also said a training requirement would have
addressed the safety concerns of law enforcement leaders."

"In the absence of such a provision", Otter wrote, "I encourage anyone
considering concealed carry to take advantage of gun-safety training
opportunities available from many reputable sources throughout Idaho."
He urged the Legislature to monitor the new law and see if additional
training requirements are needed."
